How To Dethrone That Obnoxious Kid

fw3

Lately, even though my Chat option is set to "no one," I'm getting the treat of hearing little kids acting like thug royalty, especially in Deathmatches and Racing.

As you've likely experienced, they just go on and on and on, chattering about nothing, throwing out the worst-of-the-worst words you could imagine a young person saying.

And when an idiot like me makes an effort to sincerely and thoughtfully engage them, they want no part of it, insulting and berating anyone - or just making bizarro noises, stressing out the entire group.

I don't want to have to quit a race that I waited ten minutes to find, nor do I want to turn the volume down on my tv, because i still want to hear the music, other players - once in a while during a good run with good people, and I don't wish to do invite-only racing. I host, but rarely do people join.

So, any suggestions on how you might handle these obnoxious little turds? The last kid I encountered was 10 yo and apparently has been with more women (not what he called them) than anyone on "GTA'ER'ONLINED."

Sorry OP I'm in search for a solution as much as yourself. I exit more lobbies I'd like to just based on the chatter alone. Even if it's one person, If I don't like the crackle of their voice I'm instantly gone.

I don't hear these small infants. When I play I always have headset disconnected, chat option set to "No One" and chat audio is set through headset. Therefore I never hear anyone, and they know it and many try to invite me to Xbox Live party, but I always deny the invite.

You're talking about "online" here, I don't know what kind of miracle shammy whammys you expect us to regurgitate. Have a headset where you can turn chat volume down and keep game volume up if you need to, I don't see any other solution. I always whip their ass that seems to shut them up pretty good.

"Party of one" transformed so many online shooters for me. Sure, I meet less people that way, but I no longer have to listen to homophobic, racist misogynist squeakers who are apparently MMA champion Navy SEAL snipers (and also awesome hackers) who know where I live and have done improbable things to my mother. If it turns out I'm playing with good players rather than morons, I can always invite them to the party.

Turn on your mic and attach it to its charger if you have a mic that can charge and be on at the same time. All the kid noise goes through the mic while you hear uninterrupted game noise through your speakers.

Personally if I hear a kid in a lobby I go after them until they leave. Last night there was a group of 3 squeakers. I really don't know why nor will I ever understand it but kids like to make random scream noises every 30 seconds and its very obnoxious. Call me the GTA Online Savior as I don't stop killing such tools until I hear "f*ck dis nigga ass game I quit" or "I'm going back to CoD!".
